WHAT is believed to be the oldest time capsule in Europe has been discovered in the spire of an 18th-century church in Poland
the capsule was uncovered by workers as they dismantled the seven-metre spire of a former Evangelical church in Ziebice
A small globe that had topped the spire contained a sealed copper canister and a collection of books and papers
Bullet holes in the globe are thought to date from the Red Army’s advance in 1945

When local officials and historians opened the container
they found papers in near-perfect condition relating to the construction of the church in 1797
They included the names of people involved in the construction
The date makes it the second-oldest time capsule in the world
found in 2014 in the Massachusetts State House in Boston
hidden behind a painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware River
The capsule also held coins from the period which were likely to have been included to help later generations date the contents in the event that the documents were destroyed
Other documents found with the canister date from 1902-03
dated 20 August 1902; and Evangelical prayer books

said: “These people wanted to tell us: we were here
and now you take it over and look after what we left here.”
said that the capsule’s contents needed conservation work
and would then be displayed in the town’s museum
Copies could be placed in a new time capsule in the former church
